We're about:

The Gold Coast SLR Photography Meetup Group (GDP)is for anyone who loves taking photos using their digital SLR. Our meet-ups will be opportunities for people to learn, hang out together, make friends, and have some fun. We plan on choosing a variety of projects to complete - from macro to wide, wild life, portraits or what ever members want using 'Ideas'. Venues may change later but primarily it will be based at the Gold Coast Region.

We are honest and open; we tolerate different opinions; we respect other’s cultural viewpoints; we try to pass on knowledge and expertise; we try to bring something constructive to each topic; we express disagreement in a reasoned and reasonable manner.

Don't forget to check out our "Upcoming Meetups" section every time you visit GDP. You can find "Upcoming Meetups" section under the navigation "Meetups". Please also do not forget to read our "GDP Rules & Policies, and Terms of Service" under 'Discussions > Message Board > Welcome Forum - NEW MEMBERS Start here!' section.

We also have a great selection of VIDEO section where you can find tutorials for your brand camera, advice on how to take good pictures, Tips and tricks used, debth of field, flash and many more explained. All can be found here atDiscussions > Message Board > The Gold Coast SLR Photography Message Board.
